Fox News LIES About Dominion Cost $787 Million After Settling Lawsuit

Dominion Voting Systems, a voting technology company, has settled a defamation lawsuit with Fox News for $787.5 million. The lawsuit alleged that Fox News defamed Dominion by spreading false claims about the company's role in the 2020 presidential election.

Dominion CEO John Poulos said in a statement that the settlement "is a victory for truth and democracy." He added that the company "has sought accountability for the lies that were spread about us, and we believe the evidence brought to light through this case underscores the consequences of spreading misinformation."

The settlement is a significant victory for Dominion, but it is also a reminder of the dangers of misinformation. In the wake of the 2020 election, Fox News and other right-wing media outlets spread baseless claims about Dominion's role in the election. These claims were amplified by former President Donald Trump and his allies, and they helped to fuel the January 6th insurrection.

The settlement with Fox News is a step in the right direction, but it is not enough. We need to do more to combat misinformation and to hold those who spread it accountable. We need to support fact-checking organizations and to encourage people to get their news from reliable sources. We also need to teach our children about the importance of critical thinking and media literacy.Watch the Majority Report live Monday–Friday at 12 p.m. EST on YouTube OR listen via daily podcast at http://www.Majority.FM
